Hi, SFM animator here. I can't help but notice a problem. The file was saved as an OBJ, rather than something that supports rigging / animation. Did the original model have rigging support? Because if it did, whoever saved it as an OBJ probably doesn't know OBJ is an antiquated file type that strips ALL of the rigging data out of a model, making it useless for animation. Unless you want to spend days or weeks redoing all of the rigging from scratch. All you can use this file for is maybe 3D printing at best. It would be preferable to go back and re-save the original files as an FBX, DAE, or Blender file. Something animators can work with. :)
